Photo 3: The house of Mr. Mithqal Abbas Juma’a Mustafa which received a Stop Work order.
Israeli occupation authorities gave the owners of the houses until the 13th of August, 2009 to attend the scheduled court hearing in Beit El as to “straighten their houses situation.” It is worth pointing out that since the year 2000 Israeli forces have issued 20 Stop Work orders against structures in Kufr Qallil under the pretext of being built without a permit.
